The villain who defeated the son of destiny was my father

"I am very busy with so many matters, so I'd like to trouble the Prime Minister to take care of them a little more." The Queen looked at the handsome and elegant figure with a cold face, but there was an indescribable emotion in her eyes.

Qu Honglin bowed his head slightly, "I will do my best to follow the orders of the Emperor and the Empress!"

The Queen Mother glanced at him deeply, and then set her sights on the handsome young man beside him. "This young man has an elegant appearance. Is he the Prime Minister's new counselor?"

The smile he showed just now was probably because of him, right?

"It's getting late. I have to arrange a banquet and the spring search tomorrow." Qu Honglin didn't like others discussing his daughter, even if the other person was the current queen.

Shu Renhui's expression paused, and it was unclear whether he was happy or angry.

Qu Qingyan was worried that his father had angered the Queen, so he replied, "Your Majesty, I am Yan Qing, a guest that the Prime Minister has just taken in."

Shu Renhui opened her mouth and was about to say something, but saw a hint of impatience on the handsome man's face.

"Wei Chen resigns!"

Qu Honglin bowed, then turned around and took the handsome figure beside him and left.

Liu Xianzhi and Kuisheng also left in a hurry.

When the others saw this, their expressions varied.

Looking at his cold back, Shu Renhui felt pain in her heart.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Qu is stubborn and self-righteous. He doesn't take you seriously at all." An official in court robes stood up and reported him indignantly.

Another official also stepped forward to fan the flames, "Although Prime Minister Qu is the head of all officials, he is still a subject. He does not respect the Empress like this, which shows that he does not take the Emperor, Empress, and the entire royal family seriously."

"Prime Minister Qu has been monopolizing power over the years and has done many things that have damaged the reputation of the royal family. Not only that, I heard that Prime Minister Qu killed innocent beggars in a dilapidated temple in the suburbs. This act is really infuriating to the heavens and the people."

These were Marquis Pingyang's close associates, as well as other court officials from the opposition.

The Prime Minister's followers were no pushovers either, and they immediately stood up to argue with him.

The two factions started arguing for a while.

The Empress's face was cold and imposing, "My Lords, I am only in charge of the affairs of the harem. If you have any opinions about the affairs of the previous dynasty, you can report them tomorrow when the Emperor is sober."

After saying this, she left with a group of palace maids.

Only the officials who are still fighting among themselves are left.

……

The palace covers a vast area and can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

The purpose of this spring search was not hunting, but mainly for the emperor to relax.

This move was a huge loss of money and resources. Some upright officials did not want to be swept up in the world, so they claimed to be sick and stayed at home to recuperate. Among them, the Empress's father, Shu Guozhang, was the worst.

In a magnificent courtyard of the palace.

"Yan'er, you've been tired all day. You should rest here first. I'll come over to accompany you after I finish my business." Since Qu Honglin has taken on the task of organizing the banquet, he can't sit idle.

Qu Qingyan knew that the assassination would be held tomorrow, so he nodded obediently, "I know, Dad, go ahead and do your work."

Qu Honglin was very pleased with his obedient and sensible daughter. He reached out and touched his daughter's head, then walked out.

Having a father who is a powerful official has many advantages. The residence he lives in is the best courtyard besides the one where the emperor sleeps.

[Host, how about we go out for a walk? There might be some unexpected surprises.] Xiaoyaer's voice suddenly rang in my mind.

Qu Qingyan's eyes turned slightly, but she did not refuse.

He walked out of the courtyard and into the palace.

The eunuchs and palace maids who passed by knew that she was an adviser to the prime minister. They were all in awe and fear when they saw her, and they quickly left after paying their respects.

After walking for a long time and not getting the surprise that Xiaoyaer had mentioned, Qu Qingyan decided to leave.

Suddenly, a handsome figure as handsome as the moon came into her sight.

When her eyes fell on the figure that she hated so much, Qu Qingyan's blood suddenly boiled.

[Host, calm down! Now that you have been reborn, it is inevitable to face him head-on.] Xiaoyaer hurriedly reminded her to be careful with her emotions.

"I know!" She was not afraid of confronting him, but she was afraid that she would not be able to help but kill him!

In the previous life, if he had not used sweet words and tricks to deceive the innocent and ignorant her, how could she have been so blinded by greed that she mistook fish eyes for pearls and married him to become Princess Li.

As the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's family, she was worthy of marrying the crown prince of the dynasty, but in the end she chose an unfavored prince whose biological mother was a palace maid.

Her father naturally refused to marry her to Mo Li. He tried to persuade her many times but to no avail, and even tried to assassinate him several times.

But she opposed her father in every way. The more he opposed, the more she wanted to get married. In the end, he even threatened to commit suicide.

So, her father couldn't do anything to her and had to agree.

Now that she thought about it, how much love could she have for Mo Li? It should be more of the pleasure she got from going against her father.

After all, it was her father's indifference that caused her mother to die in childbirth, and she hated him! So when Mo Li said, "For my whole life, only you are enough," she fell in love with him.

When she married into the Li Palace as she wished, she still remembered her father's complicated and painful eyes.

She thought she had won, but in the end it ended in failure.

The handsome man opposite her, as handsome as the moon, seemed to have just noticed her and walked towards her with a smile.

Qu Qingyan tried his best to suppress his hatred and control himself from killing him on the spot.

"Mr. Yan." Mo Li greeted respectfully.

Qu Qingyan's face was cold, and he casually cupped his hands, "Sixth Prince."

Once you have a connection with Prime Minister Qu, you cannot afford to offend him. Mo Li knew this very well, and his face showed no anger at all, but a gentle smile, "Why is Master Yan not accompanying the Prime Minister?"

This was to inquire about her status as a retainer in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Qu Qingyan was very familiar with Mo Li's every move, and she deliberately replied: "I suddenly feel unwell, and the Prime Minister is lenient and allows me to rest for a day."

"So that's how it is. The Prime Minister really loves Master Yan." Mo Li's eyes flashed. It was obvious that he had made up his mind.

Qu Qingyan nodded in agreement, "The Prime Minister is very caring towards every one of his subordinates." Of course, that was impossible. The Prime Minister was very strict with his subordinates.

Mo Li also knew this very well, which was why he felt how important this handsome young man in front of him was to Qu Honglin.

He knew very well that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he chatted casually for a few minutes and then bowed and said goodbye.

After he left, Qu Qingyan's face instantly darkened.

"You want me to come out just to meet him?"

The innocent voice of Xiaoyaer immediately rang in my mind, "Host, I am doing this for your own good. It has been several days since I was reborn. You need to move around more to trigger the system tasks, otherwise I won't get any power, and you won't get any points either."

"Oh? Then I have to thank you?" Qu Qingyan sneered.

[No, no, I am definitely thinking about the host.] The little one said with a giggle.

Thinking only of her?

I’m afraid that’s not entirely true!

Qu Qingyan concealed the emotions in his eyes and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
